Cookbooks for young cooks

Have you looked at the pampered chef kids cookbooks? Our kids started out with them. Both ended up taking home economics in high school. My son, college senior, still makes the chicken and dumplings recipe he learned.

We gave our books away, but they show up on amazon and ebay used for under $10 used.

Thanks...I'll check out the Pampered Chef cookbooks...

Eight years old? What is the problem with her using the same books her mother would use? May need to pick the simpler recipes to start, but she would learn more from reading to chose.

Assuming she is under adult supervision, no need for special children's cook books.

When I was young, I used the Betty Crocker Cookbook for Boys and Girls. There were some great recipes in there that I still remember. I know one could use the traditional cookbook, but one made for kids is just plain fun. My kids used it and I bought the updated version.

There are many easy, simple cookbooks for bachelor, students and people in a hurry.

Wife is trying a lot of different receipt books and from magazines and internet.
They seem to be written by some who say that looks delicious.
I get one cookbook from someone here. Can't remember her name but I have it under contacts, that has some good receipts. Best one seems to be a Good Housekeeping Cookbook. Mama got it in Home Eck probably in the thirties a thick big gray with light yellowish binding cook book from the 30's on back. Everything was made from scratch back then and it even has receipts and how to dress ground hogs an opossum deer and I am not sure what else. I didn't read that part, but my wife was telling me the other evening. I proposed to take groundhog to the family reunion. She let me know in no uncertain terms she wasn't going to cook it.
Mama was a very good cook. After school and on weekends and summers she cooked and kept house for people in the town and one took her under wing and taught here well. When I see my wife using a new receipt from an a magazine open on the counter or one of the new receipts she got somewhere, I sometimes make myself a sandwich and tell her I already ate.
